Located a few streets from every singly subway line at Borough Hall (2/3/4/5/R/F/A), this stunning example of Moorish architecture on the outside translates into a spacious pre-war studio on the inside, including a sleeping and dining area fully separated from the kitchen; a formal entryway; multiple oversized closets; high ceilings; hardwood floors; and Southern exposure.

Subletting is only allowed after you have lived in the building for a few years, and then you are allowed to sublet for no more than two years, with board approval. Rarely available, and beyond convenient, this special home is easy to show and is a stunning example of the truly special architectural styles Brooklyn Heights has to offer.
